6/04/17

Arlington Bishop Michael F. Burbidge has released the following statement on the June 3 attacks in London:

The
horrific attacks in London and the ongoing violence throughout our world sadly
remind us of the urgent need to pray daily and fervently for God’s peace in
every land and nation. May the Lord grant eternal life to those killed; heal
those who were injured and, in his divine mercy, transform the hearts of those
who seek to do harm to others. On this Pentecost Sunday and always, we ask the
Holy Spirit to guide our leaders so they may work together in securing our
protection, freedom and unity. Mary, Queen of Peace, pray for us.
